A few things first: not just anybody can join the platform. It may seem strict at first, but it’s due to an important principle: At otto.de, we only offer our customers products that we would buy ourselves. We hold our retailers to the same standards of quality, which ultimately benefits you! You will benefit from the high standards of, for example, product data management. You will be more readily discoverable in our on-site search and have a greater opportunity to convert customers – resulting in more sales for you!

The monthly basic fee is € 39.90 regardless of the number of products you offer. The basic fee applies after you have concluded the contract with us and you are technically able to sell products on otto.de. The contract can be terminated at any time with one month's notice to the end of the month. 
In line with all commercial trading platforms, you will also pay a commission for each item sold which is determined by the product group. For more detailed information about each product group and the level of commission that applies to them, see the assortment overview.

Thanks to our decades of experience as a retailer, we know the challenges you face in everyday business. We asked ourselves the question “How can I sell online?” a long time ago. And you can benefit from everything we have learnt when answering the question.

That’s why we want to make selling on otto.de as easy and convenient as possible for you. You’re not the competition – you’re our partner. You are essential in allowing us to expand our product range with our sights set on shared, long-term success. That’s why we interact with you on an equal footing, offering one of Germany’s fairest online marketplaces for e-commerce to achieve your sales targets.

With our criteria and benefits, we want to clearly differentiate ourselves from other marketplaces in Germany.
